Not perfect, but a very good start.
So far I’m very impressed with this system. The keyboard is just awesome for a netbook, and with Windows XP Home, it’s really not all that slow. I’ve had several heavier applications open at the same time and didn’t really have any problems. Aptana Studio (My [...]

Update (9/6/2010): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

Press Function-F11 to turn on the WiFi
I bought this for a friend and have been setting up software and updates for them over the past couple of days. I think the styling of the HP Mini is much nicer than the MSI Winds, but I’m getting battery life of 4 hours and change on [...]

If you want a netbook grab this one!
Okay, netbooks don’t have DVD or CD burners and generally have less memory and RAM than other laptops. That being said, this is an excellent netbook. This comes with Windows 7 Starter which is a huge improvement over Vista and is as good as or better than windows [...]

Acer One D250 with Windows 7
Update (17 Nov 09): After a fair amount of travel I stick by my initial rating. Construction is solid and I have had no issues, even after it has been thrown around a bit with my carry-on. Also, you shouldn’t have to worry about the “big” battery sticking [...]
